Dave Allen beat Johnny Fisher in a rematch at the Copper Box Arena in London on Saturday .

Allen says it was the biggest on-paper win of his career but it wasn't his greatest moment.

Allen 's win over Lucas Browne came at a time when he was struggling with a gambling addiction.

Allen had retired from boxing in 2020 after being knocked unconscious in sparring by Oleksandr Usyk .

The death of his grandmother in recent years showed him that he could survive the worst things life could throw at him.

Allen believes Fisher managed to be as competitive as he was in their first fight because of the lingering inactivity Allen suffered at the world level after his retirement.
